We as a family found the carers and staff at Home Instead to be extremely helpful. I cannot emphasise enough how valuable the service given to my parents was and would definitely recommend Home Instead to others.
Andrew C

Home Instead has been providing services for my mother for over two years and I cannot praise them enough. As well as practical help, the visits are stimulating and a social highlight. I don’t know how we could have coped through the pandemic without them. The professionalism of the entire team is outstanding.
Pat D

I have been very impressed with the quality of service and efficiency of all aspects of Home Instead for well over a year. The Care Professional they provided, invariably the same one, was superb. My wife looked forward to her visits. The admin staff answered phone calls immediately, unusual in today’s world, and dealt with any questions promptly. I was 100% delighted with Home Instead.
John C

First-rate care for my elderly mother enabled her to stay in her own home until her death, which is what she always wanted. Wonderfully empathetic and experienced carers who worked with her dementia with great understanding and sympathy. They never once let us down and I bless the day a friend recommended them.
Brendan G

Home Instead Epsom were extremely helpful and efficient when setting up the care we required. The care providers are friendly and reliable; they are very skilled, caring and imagination is given to the client and the service user.

Tailored Postoperative & Recovery Care in Epsom & Dorking
Everyone’s recovery journey is different, and our care is designed to reflect that. One client contacted us ahead of her discharge from Epsom Hospital following a hip replacement, making the transition feel far less challenging for both her and her family. In those early days, her care professional was there to help with getting up safely, managing pain, and staying on top of daily tasks. But the support didn’t stop there. As her strength returned, so did her confidence. The pair quickly developed a friendship and now continue to meet regularly, enjoying gentle walks together around Rosebery Park. Recovery care with us isn’t just about getting back on your feet; it’s about feeling like yourself again.

- Do I need rehabilitation care?
Whether your illness or injury meant you were in hospital or could stay in your own home, it can leave many people feeling drained. It is important that you don’t rush back into doing as much as you did beforehand. Extra help around the house with daily tasks can remove pressure and allow you time to recover.
- Is my home the right place for my rehabilitation?
Many people find that they benefit from care in their own home, allowing them to recover in a familiar environment rather than having to adjust to new surroundings.
- How long will I need rehabilitation care?
Rehabilitation care is often only needed for a short period of time after illness or injury. If your needs change at any time, Home Instead will be there at every stage working with your clinical team to provide as much help as you need.
- What is reablement careDiscover More
Similar to rehabilitation and recuperation care, reablement care is an invaluable step in getting your loved one out of hospital and back to living independently, and is better delivered at home for best results.
